Video Setup Options
SYSTEM - NTSC / PAL
Your DVD Player will work with TVs based on the NTSC and PAL
standards, as well as TVs, Monitors and Projectors supporting
Component Video Out.
NTSC is the standard TV system used in the USA, Canada, Japan
and many other countries, supporting 480 Lines at 60Hz. The PAL TV
system is used in Europe, Africa and the Middle East, among others,
and supports 576 Lines at 50Hz.
ASPECT - 4:3 PS / 4:3 LB / 16:9 WS
You can setup your DVD Player to work with normal and wide screen televisions. If you are using a wide screen TV,
set this option to 16:9 WS to match the aspect ratio of your TV. When used with a normal TV (4:3 aspect ratio), the
4:3 PS setting results in the typical “Pan & Scan” display, where a movie is clipped on the sides to fit on the TV
screen. The 4:3 LB setting will enable the “Letterbox” format, where the movie is presented in wide screen format
with black lines at the top and bottom of the screen.
OUTPUT - COMPOSITE / S-VIDEO / YCbCr
Change this setting to match the type of video input jack you are using on your TV.
Composite Video is the most common video connection type and is supported on most TVs. S-Video is a higher
quality video signal that is separated into brightness and color channels. YCbCr, or COMPONENT video is used for
TVs, Computer Monitors and Projectors that support three video inputs, one for a color channel (Yellow, Blue, Red).
